Furnax Redeemed

The goal of this deck is to Redeem a full-health Furnax. To do so, you need to play Show of Empathy as soon as it comes to hand and let it sit until you're ready. Then play Face the Past when you have enough ability on the board or in your hand to thwart 6!

This gives you a 2 THW, 2 ATK ally with 6 hit points, with plenty of time to find and play Honorary Guardian on him to give him 1 extra hit point.

One Change

After playing this deck a LOT more I realized I was almost never playing Heroic Intuition, so I swapped it out for Manifold to tutor Show of Empathy!

Playing the deck

I don't really need to see Face the Past early because I need to build up a bit first. I DO want to see Show of Empathy as early as possible so I can play it and forget about it until I'm ready, so I'll Mulligan hard for it.

Heroic Intuition early is fine too!

Of course, you also need to think about winning the game, so allies are always appreciated early.

I also like to basic Defend with Groot as much as I can too in order to build up my Growth Counters. This makes Vine Shield good too, but not necessary unless you're facing someone who hits REALLY hard!

I actually thought about doing something like this, bit ended up playing a similar deck with iceman....your take is great though

@NiemandSumpex thanks! I have a video series coming out in October in which I go through every hero in the game and talk about whether or not I'd play Face the Past in them, and if I'll consider playing Justice if their Nemesis isn't ELITE (and even if they CAN be Redeemed, is it worth doing so).

There are WAY more Nems which can be redeemed than I realized (Pyro is a good one as long as you have a plan for that Quickstrike Indirect damage)!

Does Furnax's Foreced response still trigger as an ally?

Sep 21, 2025 SoloMarvelChampion · 6852

@turtles04 no, because Redemption blanks the textbox.

Always here for a Groot deck. Great stuff!

@Castlefrank47 thanks, it's a fun build, especially when you can pull off Redeeming Furnax!

I've had bad experiences with Groot in the past, but this was a blast to play. Thanks for sharing!

@Lennalf thanks! Some confuses for the villain would be welcome since he has some Alter-ego value, but it works okay without them (and is fun even if you can't redeem Furnax)!
